Shutting down the government is cowardice to radicals in the Democratic Party, like AOC and the Squad. @RepJeffries has once again chosen partisanship over governance. Instead of coming to the table to work out a bipartisan compromise that extends ACA credits, he’s playing

The deeply offensive and hateful comments reportedly made in a private chat among members of the New York State Young Republicans are disgusting. They should resign from any leadership position immediately and reflect on how far they have strayed from basic human respect and

Hey y’all, I actually did it. My book Self Design: A Memoir from Brooklyn to Silicon Valley is out now. It’s real, it’s personal, and the whole story’s in there. If you ever rooted for me (or just nosy), go grab a copy so I can stop texting people about it.😂

Here are the facts: I’ve said from Day 1 that nobody wins in a government shutdown — least of all the families in New York’s 17th District who rely on veterans’ care, Social Security, Medicare, and other essential services. I meant it when I fought to avert shutdowns in the

Columbus Day, first proclaimed in 1892 by President Benjamin Harrison, one year after the brutal lynching of 11 Italian immigrants in New Orleans, commemorates the 400th anniversary of the 1492 expedition that changed the world forever. Christopher Columbus opened the door to

We are on the verge of a momentous peace agreement that will establish long-term stability in the Middle East. @POTUS and his administration deserve all the credit in the world for negotiating this peace agreement and securing the release of all the hostages.

Yesterday, I led a letter with my NY GOP colleagues to @SenSchumer and @SenGillibrand calling out their hypocrisy for shutting the government down. For decades, they backed clean CRs to keep the government open — now they’re the ones engaging in the “politics of idocracy.” New

“Every day gets better” for @SenSchumer while the American people suffer. You’re holding the government hostage to appease the far left. Stop cowering to your base and do your job.

While Senate Democrats may have shut the government down, my team and I have been hard at work across the Hudson Valley. We have been standing up for local communities impacted by state projects, celebrating our shared traditions, and honoring those who make our region stronger

I had the opportunity to take a boat ride on the Hudson with the Town of Ossining Volunteer Ambulance Corps. It was a great experience learning more about their marine operations and how they respond in emergencies. Grateful for their service and all they do to protect our

I have always voted for a clean CR, regardless of who the President has been. We must keep the government open and funded. Shutting it down doesn’t serve any real purpose besides a political one. Enough, @SenSchumer !

If the goal is to prevent Americans from facing a spike in healthcare premiums and to keep the government open, there’s a straightforward way to do it: Pass the clean CR in the Senate, extend the ACA subsidies, and stop holding the American people hostage.

This news is a welcome breakthrough and a testament to the strength of America’s unwavering partnership with Israel and our Arab partners. For too long, Hamas has chosen terror over peace, bringing suffering to both Israelis and Palestinians alike. Now, with Hamas reportedly
